Chapter 115: Shameless
That's a good question.
Qin Mengjiao was stunned, she couldn't say that she knew a merchant who was doing business, and it happened to be from Baiyun County!
She can't say that she has seen what the Qin family has experienced in the past ten years!
These must not be said, and once they are spoken, the Qin family will definitely not help her.
Zhao Canniang looked at Yang Xin and Yang Yike at this time, but saw that the arrogance of Yang Xin and Yang Yike was no longer there, but it was replaced by a kind of flattery.
Fawning over the Qin family.
"You don't have to pretend to be pitiful in front of me, it's useless, you have to borrow money." Qin said coldly.
Qin Mengjiao panicked: "Second sister, you must help me this time!" The Yue clan asked for a dowry of ten taels of silver this time, and I have it there! I sold all my jewelry and my precious clothes, and I didn't have ten taels of silver. ”
Hearing this, Qin was speechless: "She said that ten taels is ten taels, why don't you say that she Zhao Yuniang is a water-based flower-raising woman?" ”
How could Qin Mengjiao not know about this.
But the Yue clan also made it clear that if Qin Mengjiao didn't give a dowry of ten taels of silver, he would directly send Yang Yike to the official mansion, which was blatant blackmail.
The Qin family said that he would not care about this matter, and he would not care about it.
"Find your own way! I don't have any silver to lend to you here, some time ago I took a fancy to a shop, and our family is still borrowing silver everywhere, and this taro has also paid a lot of silver in advance, and there is no spare money on me at all. ”
After hearing what the Qin family said, Qin Mengjiao's eyes lit up, and she had to have a few hundred taels of silver to buy a shop!
The Qin family is so rich now. made Qin Mengjiao very jealous in her heart.
"Second sister, I beg you, I beg you." Qin Mengjiao said and was about to kneel.
Qin took a few steps back directly. distanced himself from Qin Mengjiao.
"You don't have to do this, I said that if you don't have any money to lend you, there will be no money to lend you." After Qin finished speaking, he looked at Zhao Canniang on the side and said, "Canniang go and take out the gift I prepared for Yi Ke." ”
I talked about it in the morning. At that time, the Qin family decided to send something to Yang Yike, and he could take out the silver directly.
The Qin family now let Zhao Canniang go in and get it, and it was also up to Zhao Canniang to decide what to send to Yang Yike.
Zhao Canniang happily ran into the house.
After a while, he came out with a small wooden box in his hand.
Inside the box, Zhao Canniang packed some jewelry with better symbols.
Roughly speaking, it adds up to about two taels of silver.
This time it can be regarded as Zhao Canniang's generosity.
The box was handed to Qin, and Qin handed it to Yang Yike.
"This is a gift from the second aunt to you, and you are also a relative, I said that I would not borrow the silver, how have you treated me for so many years. I have it all in mind, so let's go! Don't come in the future, you said it at the beginning, and this family affair will be broken. ”
That day, Qin Mengjiao came back with such a grand aura and Ling Ran said so many hurtful words, the Qin family would not forget it.
Zhao Canniang saw what Qin Mengjiao wanted to say, so she said coldly: "Don't waste your efforts, it's useless to pretend to be pitiful, if you have been helping even a little bit for so many years, we will do our best to help you today." People are mutual, and if you give me a drop of water, we will help you today, even if we use all our financial resources. ”
Qin Mengjiao saw that the attitude of the Qin family and Zhao Canniang was resolute. So he took the box and left.
Seeing such a scene, Qin's heart was more helpless.
"Canniang, do you think we're a little ruthless in doing this?" Qin still felt a little guilty in his heart.
Zhao Canniang smiled: "Mother, why do you think like this? Like you said, it's not our fault. Their family won't talk about it now, just say that they must have had a better life than us in the past. But you see, she never wanted to help us, and now she's in trouble. Naturally, don't ask us to help her. ”
A tooth for a tooth is Zhao Canniang's criterion for being a man, and if Qin Mengjiao didn't want to listen to good words that day, she would not have been calculated by the Yue family, and everything was only to blame Qin Mengjiao's lack of awareness of prevention.
As soon as Qin Mengjiao walked out of the Qin family's courtyard, she walked out of the village, and immediately asked Yang Yike to take out the wooden box.
When I opened it, I saw that it was full of jewelry, both gold and silver, and it was worth two taels of silver.
Qin Mengjiao couldn't help but say a little unhappy: "It's so stingy to give this little thing." ”
Yang Xin on the side was also a little disgusted: "Yes! I actually gave this little thing, mother, do you say that the second aunt's family is really so rich now?" Yang Xin's heart couldn't help but cheer up Xiao Jiujiu.
Chen Zhongqiu asked a lot of people there, but she didn't get any useful news, but Zhao Qingfeng is different, now Zhao Qingfeng is rich, and there have been many marriages between cousins and cousins since ancient times.
Yang Xin wants to marry a rich man, naturally, as long as there is a suitable rich man around him, Yang Xin will pay more attention.
Qin Mengjiao nodded, with a look of unwillingness, thinking that the Qin family had a hard life back then, but she was the most willing thing to hear, but now it is good, the Qin family's life is getting better, but she is not as good as day by day, and she can't help but speak a little sourly: "Because you should be rich, didn't you hear it!" Their family is going to buy a shop, can that shop be bought for dozens of taels of silver? There must have been a few hundred taels of silver, and I don't know how she had so much money. ”
Yang Xin's eyes rolled, but he said: "Mother, do you think this is good, you go to the matchmaker to come to your cousin to say goodbye, isn't your cousin still undecided?" If my cousin and I get along, it will be easier to do this, and when the time comes, we will have the money to start again, and I will be able to get this good family business. ”
When Yang Xin said this, he didn't blush at all, but felt that it was a matter of course.
When Qin Mengjiao heard this, she was overjoyed, this was a good way.
Yang Yike listened, and his eyes lit up: "Yes! Mother, why didn't we think of this solution! In this way, my sister can also marry a good relative. It's still my sister's head that turns fast. ”
What the Qin family is thinking about is how to make the Qin family agree to this family, there is no doubt that if you call the matchmaker directly, the Qin family will not agree, if you ask the Liu family to say it!
Qin was ecstatic in his heart.
"Mother has a way, I will tell your grandmother when I go back tonight, with your grandmother here, it is impossible for the Qin family not to agree at that time."
Qin Mengjiao thought that she had played a good game of chess, but she didn't want to, and Lai's also played the same attention as her.
Early the next morning.
The Qin family found an ox cart in the village, and Zhao Canniang put the ground hemp taro flour on the ox cart.
Recently, I have been too busy, and the matter of buying a carriage has been put on hold.
Zhao Canniang and the Qin family got out of the car at the city gate.
"Mother, go straight to the restaurant! I'll just go to Tianxiang Restaurant alone. ”
Zhao Canniang didn't want to delay too much time, and there were still people who had to help the family threshing rice in the afternoon.
The Qin family and Zhao Canniang were separated at the city gate, and Zhao Canniang went directly to Tianxiang Restaurant with a basket on her back.
Konjac powder only carries more than 20 catties, and Zhao Canniang plays Tai Chi every day and practices martial arts, which can bear this weight.
Shopkeeper Zhang saw Zhao Canniang coming with a big basket on his back, his eyes lit up, and then he warmly entertained Zhao Canniang.
Recently, there are a lot of people in the restaurant who come to ask about konjac, but there is only a little konjac every day, where to buy, and there are many people in Yucheng, Ke Tianlin has written many times to urge.
"Canniang finally waited for you." Shopkeeper Zhang saw the back basket on Zhao Canniang's back, and hurriedly stepped forward to help Zhao Canniang next.
Zhao Canniang smiled: "I also want to come early, but this thing just takes so long, and because I am busy in the past two days, I haven't sent you fresh ones, no, as soon as the powder is grinded, I will send it to you." ”
Zhao Canniang opened the cloth bag in the back basket as she spoke.
Konjac flour Zhao Canniang grinds very finely, so that when the time comes, it will be more delicate and tender.
Shopkeeper Zhang has been making konjac by himself during this time, and he has also summed up a lot of experience, and he couldn't help but be surprised when he saw that the konjac powder given by Zhao Canniang was so good.
"This konjac flour is very good! How many are left at home? ”
Zhao Canniang thought for a while: "It is estimated that there are more than 1,000 catties, here is just a little bit, there is a lot of drying at home, I have been doing this for a while now, you see my hands are swollen, it is estimated that it will take a little time to grind all the konjac at home into powder." ”
Zhao Canniang was a little helpless, she and the Qin family were grinding this konjac powder behind closed doors, after all, the more mysterious this thing is, the more it can arouse the associations of others.
There was a little pity in the shopkeeper's eyes.
"You kid, by the way, why didn't your mother come?"
Shopkeeper Zhang couldn't help but look at the door, the Qin family didn't come, and he felt a little lost in his heart.
Zhao Canniang didn't think much about it, and replied with a smile: "My mother went to my brother's shop, and the family has been busy recently, plus the grain harvest, the family is very busy." ”
Shopkeeper Zhang just smiled and diverted the topic.
"How many konjac flour are there, do you have any scales?"
Zhao Canniang shook her head: "No, come out early in the morning, shopkeeper Zhang will help weigh it, by the way, this money shopkeeper Zhang will record it there first, and give it together when you have more!" In a few days, we want to set up our own shop, and then we are afraid that we will need silver. ”
This is a small problem, Ke Tianlin explained to Shopkeeper Zhang at the beginning, as long as it is Zhao Canniang's silver, they must give them a lot of money, and they can't be in arrears.
"Of course there's no problem with this, when you want silver, just come over."
Coming out of Tianxiang Restaurant, Zhao Canniang breathed a sigh of relief.
went directly to the restaurant, but saw a large group of people gathered at the door.
Intuition told Zhao Canniang that something was wrong, and she was a little panicked, and Zhao Canniang immediately ran up.
At the door of Zhao's private restaurant, an obese man stood at the door of the restaurant with two young men in blue behind him, with an arrogant face. (To be continued......)
